Master of Macabre: Edgar Allen Poe 🕯️ (Feat. Bryan Jason)

Good evening my fellow creepsters! On todays episode, Bryan Jason & I will be investigating, as the title suggests, the mysterious death of the Master of Macabre! Edgar Allen Poe! Most people recognize Poe by his famous poem, "The Raven". Others may have read one of his more popular dark and creepy tales like, "The Fall of the House of Usher" or "The Tell-tale Heart". Poe wrote quite a few gothic stories about murder, revenge, torture, the plague, being buried alive, and insanity. Many modern books and movies have "borrowed" ideas from Poe. Some of Poe's stories were not well accepted in his day because people were just not ready for them- they were too scary. The mystery surrounding Poe's death has led to many myths and urban legends. The reality is that no one knows for sure what happened during the last few days of his life. Did Poe die from alcoholism? Was he mugged? Did he have rabies? A more detailed exploration of Poe's death will be discussed in todays episode! The full version of this episode can be enjoyed on the Cosmic Peach Patreon!
